24 red marbles is40% of ? Marbles

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer: The answer is 60

Step-by-step explanation: 40% = .4 because % means hundredths. So 40% = 40/100 = .4

Let x be the total number of marbles.

Then, .4x = 24

Divide both sides by .4

x = 60 and 24 is 40% of 60 marbles

A company manager for a tire manufacturer is in charge of making sure there is the least amount of defective tires. If the tire

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

0.347% of the total tires will be rejected as underweight.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a standard normal distribution, (with mean 0 and standard deviation 1), the lower and upper quartiles are located at -0.67448 and +0.67448 respectively. Thus the interquartile range (IQR) is 1.34896.

And the manager decides to reject a tire as underweight if it falls more than 1.5 interquartile ranges below the lower quartile of the specified shipment of tires.

1.5 of the Interquartile range = 1.5 × 1.34896 = 2.02344

1.5 of the interquartile range below the lower quartile = (lower quartile) - (1.5 of Interquartile range) = -0.67448 - 2.02344 = -2.69792

The proportion of tires that will fall 1.5 of the interquartile range below the lower quartile = P(x < -2.69792) ≈ P(x < -2.70)

Using data from the normal distribution table

P(x < -2.70) = 0.00347 = 0.347% of the total tires will be rejected as underweight

Hope this Helps!!!

Line segment ST is dilated to create line segment S'T' using the dilation rule DQ,2. 25. Point Q is the center of dilation. Line

abruzzese [7]

The distance between points S' and S is x= 2.5 units.

<h2>Given that</h2>

Line segment ST is dilated to create line segment S'T' using the dilation rule DQ 2. 25.

Point Q is the center of dilation.

Line segment ST is dilated to create line segment S prime T prime.

The length of QT is 1. 2 and the length of QS is 2.

The length of SS prime is x and the length of TT prime is 1. 5.

<h3>We have to determine</h3>

What is x, the distance between points S' and S?

<h3>According to the question</h3>

Line segment ST is dilated to create line segment S'T' using the dilation rule DQ, 2.25.

Also, SQ = 2 units, TQ = 1.2 units, TT'=1.5, SS' = x.

Since the line ST is dilated to S'T' with the center of dilation Q, the triangles STQ and S'T'Q must be similar.

We know that the corresponding sides of two similar triangles are proportional.

So, from ΔSTQ and ΔS'T'Q.

$\dfrac{SQ}{S'Q} = \dfrac{TQ}{T'Q}\\
\\
\dfrac{SQ}{SQ+SS} = \dfrac{TQ}{TQ+TT'}\\
\\ 
\dfrac{2}{2+x} = \dfrac{1.2}{1.2+1.5}\\\rm 
\\
\dfrac{2}{2+x} = \dfrac{1.2}{2.7}\\\\ \dfrac{2}{2+x} = \dfrac{12}{27}\\\\2(27) = (2+x) 12\\\\ 54 = 24 + 12x\\
\\
12x = 54-24\\
\\
12x=30\\
\\
x = \dfrac{30}{12}\\
\\
x = 2.5$

Hence, the distance between points S' and S is x= 2.5 units.

Which graph has a slope of 1/2?

ryzh [129]

A slope of 1/2 means for every two units to the right we move up one.

We have to be careful here because the graphs don't always use the same scale for x and y.

The bottom left uses the same scale and does indeed go two units to the right for every unit up, so that one is the answer.
